  "account": "The Chicago Cubs defeated the Atlanta Braves 8-4 on Wednesday night at Wrigley Field, taking the series two games to one. Starting pitcher Shōta Imanaga allowed seven hits and six runs in 4.2 innings, but then settled down to retire the Braves over the final 3.7 innings. The Cubs' offense was instrumental in their victory, with 12 hits including Pete Crow-Armstrong and Alex Bregman's triples and home runs. Crow-Armstrong's 43rd career home run led off the third inning, establishing a new franchise record for left-handed hitters. Bregman followed with his 26th homer of the year. The Cubs' Carson Kelly then drove in the first run of the game with a solo homer in the fourth inning. Alex Bregman's second triple of the inning led off the sixth, making it 6-0 for the Cubs. Shōta Imanaga's strong performance and the Cubs' timely hitting resulted in a solid victory for Chicago.",
